Restaurant in Bondi Beach
A chef-driven Japanese sushi restaurant on Hall Street, a short walk back from Bondi Beach, built around hand-crafted sushi from fresh, daily fish.
Formerly Sushi St.
Sake Street is a small, sushi-forward Japanese room run by chef Yang Yang, who makes his own mayo and soy and hand-forms each piece from salmon, kingfish and tuna. If you want considered, traditional sushi rather than a big beachfront scene, this is the kind of quiet Hall Street spot we'd choose for it. Reservations are by phone, which tells you it leans intimate rather than walk-in-and-wait.
Nigiri and sashimi built around the day's catch — salmon, kingfish and tuna — with house-made condiments; the name points you toward pairing with sake.
Small, calm, chef-led sushi room
Local tip: Book ahead by phone — it's a compact room and reservations are handled by call only, so don't bank on walking up on a busy Bondi night.
Worth knowing: No ocean views or beachfront buzz — it's a back-street sushi room, and the premium, chef-driven approach sits above the casual Bondi average on price.
Hours, prices and menus change — always check the venue’s own site before you go. Spotted something out of date? We keep this directory current; details reflect our last check.
